1) I'm finally getting off my duff and puttering around with the blog's formatting! I've managed to lose several hours today looking at the bones of various freely-available templates and at tutorials far beyond me. In the back of my head lives the sneaking urge to learn to ACTUALLY WRITE THIS STUFF, but for the moment, I'm bribing it with snippets and tweaks to existing code.
2) Finished a set of stemcharms for the silent auction my son's preschool holds every year. The parents all chip in things for themed baskets, then bid on them to raise money so we can all dodge a tuition increase. Judging by the rest of the contents of Dae's class's basket (two bottles of bubbly, glasses to drink it from, noisemakers, etc.), I'm guessing the theme is "New Year's Eve Party At Home". Bless Anglicans.
Anyhow, there are pictures!
One of these days, I'll remember to set up a tripod and lighting for shots like these...
Just wrapped up another shipment of The Evil Gazebo. I'm finding that I actually like doing a string of similar books--it gives me the chance to try one different thing with every iteration.
